  • The new U2 album that I never asked for keep playing on my Ipad, how do I get rid of it ? seems to come from the iCloud....

    need to delete this album from my ipad...
    icons of iCloud on the right of the songs.
    the album appears under artists
    doesn't appear on lists
    doesn't appear on the Imac when Ipad connected ?
    how do I suppress this music I don't want ?

    ok thx for answering, but I still don’t understand why the music is playing while I never downloaded it ?
    when I use the music icon on my Ipad, on my lists, it suddenly plays the U2 noise in the middle of it
    why, if it’s not on my Ipad ?

    when it show a cloud to the right then it's not on your device
    it mean that it's tied to y our iCloud account and can be redownloaded should you wish to
    if you buy other music from iTunes and don't want it on the iOS device anymore because you transferred to your computer
    and wish to add other music then that too will show with the cloud it mean that should you wish you can get it downloaded again free
    it's pretty much the same deal in app store app where you can click on purchases and access all apps tied to your appleID

    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
    *Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

  • My Safari homepage is hijacked by One Search, how can I get rid of it?

    Has anyone had the same problem as this? My Homepage keeps defaulting to a search page called, 'One Search' and I cannot get rid of it. I reset my homepage only for it to be bypassed and One Search to appear overtime I open the browser.
    Also if I click on any page that is open I get pop-up ads that are not stopped by Adblocker. I have installed the OS X 10.10.1 hoping this would fix it but it has not.
    Any ideas would be welcome.

    There is no need to download anything to solve this problem.
    You may have installed the "VSearch" trojan. Remove it as follows.
    Malware is always changing to get around the defenses against it. These instructions are valid as of now, as far as I know. They won't necessarily be valid in the future. Anyone finding this comment a few days or more after it was posted should look for more recent discussions or start a new one.
    Back up all data before proceeding.
    Step 1
    From the Safari menu bar, select
              Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Extensions
    Uninstall any extensions you don't know you need, including any that have the word "Spigot," "Trovi," or "Conduit" in the description. If in doubt, uninstall all extensions. Do the equivalent for the Firefox and Chrome browsers, if you use either of those.
    Reset the home page and default search engine in all the browsers, if it was changed.
    Step 2
    Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
    /Library/LaunchAgents/com.vsearch.agent.plist
    Right-click or control-click the line and select
              Services ▹ Reveal in Finder (or just Reveal)
    from the contextual menu.* A folder should open with an item named "com.vsearch.agent.plist" selected. Drag the selected item to the Trash. You may be prompted for your administrator login password.
    Repeat with each of these lines:
    /Library/LaunchDaemons/com.vsearch.daemon.plist
    /Library/LaunchDaemons/com.vsearch.helper.plist
    Restart the computer and empty the Trash. Then delete the following items in the same way:
    /Library/Application Support/VSearch
    /System/Library/Frameworks/VSearch.framework
    ~/Library/Internet Plug-Ins/ConduitNPAPIPlugin.plugin
    Some of these items may be absent, in which case you'll get a message that the file can't be found. Skip that item and go on to the next one.
    The problem may have started when you downloaded and ran an application called "MPlayerX." That's the name of a legitimate free movie player, but the name is also used fraudulently to distribute VSearch. If there is an item with that name in the Applications folder, delete it, and if you wish, replace it with the genuine article from mplayerx.org.
    This trojan is often found on illegal websites that traffic in pirated content such as movies. If you, or anyone else who uses the computer, visit such sites and follow prompts to install software, you can expect more of the same, and worse, to follow. Never install any software that you downloaded from a bittorrent, or that was downloaded by someone else from an unknown source.
    In the Security & Privacy pane of System Preferences, select the General tab. The radio button marked Anywhere  should not be selected. If it is, click the lock icon to unlock the settings, then select one of the other buttons. After that, don't ignore a warning that you are about to run or install an application from an unknown developer.
    Then, still in System Preferences, open the App Store or Software Update pane and check the box marked
              Install system data files and security updates
    if it's not already checked.
    *If you don't see the contextual menu item, copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination  command-C. In the Finder, select
              Go ▹ Go to Folder...
    from the menu bar and paste into the box that opens by pressing command-V. You won't see what you pasted because a line break is included. Press return.

  • Firefox has been hijacked by Babylon Search, how do I get rid of it/

    I did not add Babylon Search. I deleted it from Add & Remove programs. It's gone from the list, but is still in Firefox. I removed it from Add-ons in Firefox. But it's still there. I've run ConboFix, but it's still there. How do I get rid of it?

  • Acid Search -- how do I get rid of it?

    Safari 4.0 won't load due to Acid Search, a useless plugin from last year that I never should have loaded. There is no uninstaller, and all Spotlight can find is the installer. How do I get rid of this plugin?

  • Although I have Igoogle as my home page when I open Firefox it comes up as somoto. How can I get rid of this.

    My home page on Firefox only has been changed to somoto. I can't get rid of it. Have run scans for malware and viruses with more than one program and has eliminated any bad stuff. I cannot find the word somoto anywhere in my computer. My regular home page comes up in IE and Chrome.

    This worked for me:
    open add/remove programs and uninstall every toolbar you see that you don't know exactly what it is. The trojan or virus ... whatever it is can hide itself in another name. it happened to be "burn4free" toolbar when i downloaded burn4free a few days ago. I uninstalled it, restarted my computer upon prompt, and VOILA! no more annoying homepage. Like i said, it may be renamed so make sure to do some trial and error if you're not sure which one it is. GOOD LUCK!

  • About:home comes up on my browser - how do I get rid of this? I cannot find the place to look for Internet Options so I can change my homepage - where is this on the new firefox? Thank you

    I have a new computer - it has windows 7 and I have your latest mozilla firefox running. about:home is the opening URL and I know this is not good. But when I looked for the tab to find Internet Options(like I had on my last computer) I can't find it anywhere! I used to use that to change my homepage - that got rid of the about:home before. So now, what should I do? Where is the Internet Options tab? I did try to use the control panel to switch my homepage, but it only switched my Internet Explorer browser homepage, even though it is not my default browser. Thank you.

  • I used to have a duplicate apple id which I thought was gone but is now blocking me from updating apps,  How do I get rid of it since I no longer have a password for it?

    I used to have duplicate apple ids and I thought they got merged into one.  a few weeks ago the old one showed up in my Apps screen on my new iphone5 and is keeping me from updating all my apps and adding new ones.  I can't reset the password for it because it doesn't exist anymore.  Resetting my current apple ID has no effect on this old Apple ID and it continues to block my APPs application.  Anybody out there have a solution?  I have reset my phone more times than I can count to no avail. 

    App updates will always prompt with the Apple ID used to puchase those apps.  You also CANNOT merge Apple IDs.  What you can do:
    1) Delete those apps purchased w/ your previous Apple ID asking to be updated and purchase/download it with your current Apple ID.
    2) Contact Apple support to help you reset the password of your previous Apple ID then rename it with another email address of yours (active and shouldn't be another Apple ID) so you'll be able to do future app updates.
    3) Leave those apps not updated and just continue w/ your current Apple ID for your purchases.

  • HT5621 i recently had to change my apple id, however my old one still pops up and is the one that comes up undre my iCloud. how can i get rid of this?

    a while back my email was hacked and i could no longer remember the password for my apple id because i had changed it so many times. i ended up making a new apple id and changed everything i could over to that one, however, my iCloud information is still set to my old id and i am unable to change that and i get random pop ups while using my phone that ask for the password to the old id. i called support and i was told they would charge me $120 to help me out with this, but i think it is outrageous to pay that amount when the malfunction is an issue with apple, not me.  is there anyone to reset my iCloud configurations and id because that is truly all i think i need to do, other than find a way to delete the old ID from my phone completely.

    Make sure you enter your new Id in settings/message, settings/facetime.  ANy content that you downloaded with the old ID is forever linked to that old ID and if you have apps that were downloaded with the old ID and you want to update them you can only do that with the old ID.  You could delete those apps and downlad them again ( and pay for them if they are not free apps)

    As long as don't have any metadata attached to the broken files which you would like to preserve...
    You could use iTunes Folder Watch with its option to "check for dead tracks on startup"
    Or
    Robert Jacobson's script itunes_remove_notfound
    Or
    Create a playlist called Found, select everything in Music and drag it into the Found playlist. Create a smart playlist called Lost matching All the rules Playlist is Music and Playlist is not Found. Your lost tracks will be in this playlist. You can delete them all with a Ctrl-A to select them and Shift-Delete to remove them.
    You can then delete the Lost & Found playlists.
    If there are ratings, play counts etc. attached to the broken links, but you've since reimported the files from another location then I have a script called FindTracks that could probably repair the broken links, and another called DeDuper that could dedupe and gather up the stats while preserving playlist membership etc.
